    Default over the hill?

    Ive never bothered with my age before, Ive always thought "i have the rest of my life to grow up, why do it now?" but every time I notice that little 40 in the left column on this forum I still get a shock.
    Is it time for a little red sports car? or a cardigan?

    Or get her to wear the tight red cardigan in the sports car , though if your like most 40 year olds SHMBO wont wear the cardigan or let you buy the sports car or let alone get her to wear it.

    Mate 40 aint old and it isn't the time to make those change of life decisions , ask your self are you happy , and what do I realy want , then go for it and get that $6000 table saw , but the red sports car ...Ha who needs it,

    40 isn't old anymore?
    I thought it was the point of self delusion that life apparently started again.

    Was I wrong about this?

    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    Remember that when you are over the hill

    - it is time to pick up the feet and enjoy the view.
